New this week: a mural in an alley in Ann Arbor downtown, with tables ready for outdoor drinking.
The Circ Bar, next to the alley, owns the space and is cooperating closely with the artist, Gary Horton.
The Ann Arbor Art Association received a $50,000 grant to support this and several additional murals. |
 |
Facing the new mural: another target image.
|
 |
In the same block: the alley belonging to the Blind Pig and 8 Ball Saloon:
a wall of new murals leads to an outdoor dining area. |
 |
The mural was painted this week by Chris “Dokebi” Sammons.
|
 |
Also in the alley: graffiti.
|
 |
Around the back: more graffiti. Will there be more murals? I don't know.
|
 |
At the Art Association building: another new mural painted with the grant.
|
 |
The creators of this mural are from the University of
Michigan group "Live in Color." |

I like the first one...thanks for sharing, Mae, and have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteThe murals do brighten up public spaces, and that was a great way to make that outdoor seating area a welcoming spot.
ReplyDeleteThey certainly stand out. Hopefully no-one will deface them.
ReplyDeleteLove the little monsters! Here you´re still not allowed to sit so close to each other.
ReplyDeleteFun murals! Those horned critters by Chris “Dokebi” Sammons are a little scary.
ReplyDeleteI am visiting my neighbor Sally, so I must keep this brief. My internet appears to be fine, but my power supply cord has gone bad, at least that is what my computer guru friend Scott thinks. He will try to get a new one for me in town on Monday. If not, he will buy one at Amazon. That's why I was late visiting today.
ReplyDeleteYou have found some lovely murals, and some I have trouble appreciating. I do like all the beautiful colors, though, especially the first and second ones. Great finds.
Thats a big collection. Thanks for showing us.
ReplyDeleteSo nice that you found more murals Mae.
ReplyDeleteLove the first one and the one painted on the container.
Thanks for participating Mae.
